As a former school counselor of 15 years and mom of 2 with a wealth of experience working with kids and parents, I support adults, children and parents/guardians to forge paths that lead to happier and more harmonious households.
Being a parent is a tough job and nobody gives us a handbook! So much can happen that leaves us feeling frustrated, ashamed and overwhelmed, turning our households into emotional battlefields. Is your child or teen struggling with anxiety or tantrums at home? Having school issues: discipline, refusal, or separation anxiety and nothing you do is working? Are you a parent experiencing the intense overwhelm of parenting multiple kids/teens or challenging kids? Are you going through a divorce or trying to co-parent and worry about how the split is affecting your kids but are not sure what to do? This is what I do, and I’m here to help.

I have more than 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents and adults who are seeking help with mental health concerns related to depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, anxiety, PTSD, substance use disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, as well as life transitions and other obstacles.
Wellness has been defined as a way of life oriented toward optimal health and well-being in which body, mind, and spirit are integrated to live more fully within the human and natural community. Ideally, it is the optimum state of health and well-being that each individual is capable of achieving. When working together in counseling, I perceive one’s thoughts are related to their feelings and reactions to events, not the events themselves. Counseling sessions are individualized to meet the unique needs of each client.

Availability in MAY - I support anxious, highly sensitive adolescents move from a space of worried and unsure to a place of calm and confident. Imagine your child woke up and felt confident, peaceful and just “okay” in their own skin. When she was younger, you never had to worry about her. Now you're worrying all the time. She’s her harshest critic and never seems to think she’s good enough. Maybe you’ve seen friendships change or grades drop and you want so desperately to just understand - to help. Adolescence can already feel challenging, throw in anxiety and it can feel down right debilitating.

As parents, we all want our children to be happy well adjusted individuals who are taking steps toward reaching their full potential. So it goes without saying that one of the most difficult things to do is to watch our children struggle in school and feel powerless in knowing how to help them. If your child is performing below grade level or exhibiting behavioral problems at home and school, these constant struggles may be evoking feelings of intense sadness, anxiety, and frustration in both you and your child and negatively impacting other areas of both your lives.

I get it, reaching out for help can feel intimidating and confusing. That is why I work to make people feel comfortable and accepted. I try to make the therapy process enjoyable with humor and affirmation. My approach is collaborative as I view therapy as a form of partnership. I have worked with both adults and children with a range of diagnoses including, autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management, ODD, ADHD, emotional regulation, grief, life transitions, and self esteem issues. I believe that people are more then their diagnosis and that our mistakes do not define us, but are opportunities for growth.
